Nicole, Linda, and Stephen bid a fond farewell to the fabulous Simone de Rochefort. Nintendo expert Courtney Holmes joins us on the podcast. We talk about the news and tackle the question of whether toys-to-life games like Skylanders and Disney Infinity are a “bubble.”  Then, as always, we talk about what we’re playing.

Hey, Overcast listeners! Recommend us if you have a minute, would you? Thanks, everyone, we love you! Please send in questions!

Linda learned to play video games as a way to connect with her teenaged kids, and then she learned to love video games for their own sake. At Pixelkin she wrangles the business & management side of things, writes posts as often as she can, reaches out on the social media, and does the occasional panel or talk. She lives in Seattle, where she writes, studies, plays video games, spends time with her family, consumes vast quantities of science fiction, and looks after her small cockapoo. She loves to hear from people out there. You can read more about her at her website, Linda Breneman.com or her family foundation's website, ludusproject.org.
